Thinking about how every single Ace Rimmer dies and there’s been so many of them and Lister sees the evidence of this when they follow the coffin but still convinces Rimmer to go.

Like Lister knows how much Rimmer just wants to be important and knows he can’t do that stuck in space with him and he sends him off knowing he will never see Rimmer again and is likely sending him to his death. But he does it. And then he misses Rimmer so much.

And like the funeral for Rimmer is kind of real because Rimmer is going to die just like all the other Ace Rimmers have.

He’s not gonna be back for supper do not stoke him a clipper or whatever he won’t make it back to have it.

Someone just told me aviator sunglasses aren’t cool. Ridiculous. If aviator glasses aren’t cool than who even is Ace Rimmer?

You cannot look at him, in the eye, and tell me that aviator glasses are not cool as hell. You cannot do this. It’s physically impossible.

The Cat was actually just being so picky not wanting to eat out of the medical dishes. Like Lister made you some really good food and those dishes are sterile.

Just rewatched Polymorph and it’s made me think that the crew would be absolutely amazing in a ghost busters movie. Cat especially.

I want to know what it feels like to be a fried egg and chili chutney sandwich. Not in the metaphorical way Rimmer does but in the way of I think it’d feel interesting to be a fried egg and chili chutney sandwich. Like you’re a sandwich, but you’re also a battleground for bacteriological warfare. You are actively dissolving and also someone might be eating you.

Love that all the other cats have names but Cat is just Cat. Like in the books it’s explained as cats being really self centered as a species but in the show and movie that doesn’t work cause the other cats have names. I like to think he just saw the opportunity to fuck with Lister and Rimmer or he’s just so vain that he saw all the other cats leave and was just like: well, those guys are all dead so now I am the Entire Species.

Holly is truly the best prankster ever and I love him for it.

Red Dwarf reboot show that is actually just Red Dwarf but following the skutters in their own adventures while the events of the og show play out in the background.

Cat might have designed Rimmer’s season three uniform. It’s not the standard Red Dwarf uniform so they must’ve made it specifically for Rimmer in which case the Cat could’ve designed it for Holly to project.

What The Penguins of Madagascar really needs is to get a show in the format of The Office. Going about their spy shit and then giving a glance to the camera. The lemurs would be a group they interact with frequently of course. As KJ is a king he might hire them for missions and then involve himself more than any one wants. Sometimes he just hires them to keep Mort busy for a bit. Maurice might hire them to do actual work behind Kj’s back.

S1 E3 of Red Dwarf Rimmer says he was always a master at hide and seek when he was a kid and now i’m just imagining him hiding from his brothers or his bullies or his dad. Even just him playing hide and seek and hiding so well that people just forget about him. I like to imagine he brings a book with him because he is so good at hiding people don’t find him and he just sits in a wardrobe somewhere reading Napoleon’s war diaries.

How little does Rimmer look at himself after becoming a hologram that he doesn’t even recognize his own face in the mirror?

RIP Arnold Rimmer you would have loved D&D.

I really love thinking about the cats society because imagine the cats exploring the ship and just finding parts of some old civilization. All the people who used to live on the ship and the evidence of their lives. Imagine them finding the picture of Lister and Frankenstein that he sent to the ships lab and piecing together their religion and views of the world from these scraps of ancient life.

I kind of think that Rimmer is unaware of his self loathing because he hates himself. Like if he knew that he was unhappy with how he acts or looks he might try and fix it and then other people would like him more. So he is willfully unaware because he hates himself and wants to suffer more.

I NEED to know more about the Cat’s childhood. Like he was basically alone in the ship? The entire place to himself? And all of his values are different from the religious cats so like where did he get them? Someone create something with Cat as a child in Red Dwarf growing up. I want to see him experimenting with his outfits in the early stages. Learning to sew. Exploring as a little cat. Pleeeease god create more Cat Red Dwarf content for me.

The amount of times Rimmer has thought it would be a good idea to have another him and then immediately started hating the other him or having something bad happen with it is actually insane. Will he never learn? Will he never acknowledge his own self hatred?
